VIEW THE HISTORY DATA

The weather station can store up to 140 sets of weather data which are recorded automatically at 3-hour intervals after the weather station is powered up, at the nearest time of 0:00, 03:00, 06:00, 09:00, 12:00, 15:00, 18:00 and 21:00. For instance, if user has manually set the time as 14:52 after installing batteries, the first history record will be made at the coming 15:00 automatically. Then the second record will be on 18:00 and so on.

Each weather record includes the Wind direction, Wind speed/ gust, Wind chill temperature, wind speed/gust, dew point, Outdoor temp and humidity, relative pressure, 24-hour rainfall and total rainfall, pressure history and weather tendency. Also, the time and date of recording will be displayed.

NOTE:

In order to acquire the correct time of recording of the history records, you shall manually set the current time as soon as installing batteries to the weather station. Afterwards, you should avoid changing the pre- set time as it will also alter the recorded "time of recording" of each history record, which may lead to confusion.

To view the weather history:

1.In normal display, press the HISTORY key. The latest weather record will be shown with the date and time of recording. The "HISTORY" icon will be displayed at the bottom of the LCD.

2.When viewing History records, user may shift to see the Mode 1 or Mode 2 data by pressing the SET key.

Mode 1: with wind speed + outdoor Temp + Rel. pressure;

Mode 2: with wind gust + Dew point + rainfall data (optional)
